makes electric power viable

Cruise 2.0 Long Shaft

With the thrust force of a 6-horsepower combustion engine, the Torqeedo Cruise 2.0 electric outboard engine is the emission-free alternative for sailing and motor boats with displacement of up to three tons.

Equipped with the latest torque technology, an optimized drive train and an optimized propeller, the Torqeedo Cruise 2.0 is not only the most efficient but also the most powerful 24-volt outboard available on the market. It weighs 19 pounds (not including the weight of the batteries) and is available in short- and long-shaft versions. Cost is approximately $3,000.

The Cruise gets its energy either from lead batteries that have been connected in series (normally two 12 V batteries) or from the Torqeedo Power, lithium-based batteries.
When using lead batteries within the power range of the Cruise 2.0, the efficiency of a drive is important for two reasons. On the one hand, an efficient drive converts the used energy better into propulsive force. A high efficiency of the drive additionally ensures that more battery capacity is available for consumption. The more efficient a drive is, the more it prevents the effectively available battery capacity from being reduced due to unnecessarily high-power intake.

The Torqeedo Cruise 2.0 is designed to work with a nominal voltage of 24 volts in the form of two connected-in-series 12-volt batteries. When using new lead-gel batteries, the actual measured voltage depicted in the voltage indicator should range between 27 volts in a loaded state and 20 volts in an almost empty state.
